- Creek Street - Creek Street is a historic boardwalk set on pilings along Ketchikan Creek in Ketchikan, Alaska. Once a Red Light District where both men and salmon swam upstream to spawn, it is now a charming area to explore Dolly’s House museum, view totem poles, shop at local stores and galleries, and enjoy local art and culture. During the summer, thousands of salmon gather to spawn upstream, while seals and otters are often nearby and eagles perch in the trees above.
- Ketchikan - Ketchikan Creek was a summer fish camp for Tlingit natives long before the town was founded by Mike Martin in 1885. Sent by an Oregon canning company to evaluate prospects, Martin established the saltery Clark & Martin and a general store with George Clark, a Nova Scotia native and former foreman at a cannery that had burned down. Ketchikan earned the nickname “Alaska’s first city” due to its strategic location at the southern tip of the Inside Passage, linking the Gulf of Alaska to Puget Sound. In 1905, a mission house was constructed, which became the Yates Memorial Hospital in 1909. In 2020, the National Trust for Historic Preservation recognized the former hospital as one of America’s most endangered historic places.
- Saxman Native Village - Saxman Native Village is renowned for its impressive collection of Native American Totem Poles, the largest standing collection. Beyond this, the village features a beautiful Clan House, a Native Carving Shed, a Gift Shop, a short rainforest walk, and active eagle nests just across the street. Saxman is one of the premier Totem Pole Parks in Ketchikan and is a must-visit during your stay!
